Artistic and grounded don’t always
come in the same package.....
Lynn Bryant isn’t any run-of-the-mill
performer and songwriter. Her songs demonstrate both a strong-woman
sense of self-preservation and a
barbed sense of humor.
Bryant’s also a well rounded personality whose comfort in
multiple settings has resulted in her across the board success.
A Nashville resident who currently resides in Los Angeles, Bryant
maintains a pace others would find daunting. With two albums under
her belt, a movie score produced by legendary film/TV producer
Charlie Fox,
a new clothing line for her Star
Heart Design label and two television
shows in the works, Bryant's entrepreneurial drive continually
introduces new elements to her already established career.
Bryant faces life with a doggedly positive viewpoint and a daring
spirit. Her passion for life is what inspired her to aid in the
development of children’s character through her education
program, The Nancy Ferro Learning
For Life Foundation, which teaches
academics and character lessons to elementary-school students.
Bryant instills in each child her personal motto - “Dream
big, love bigger, believe in yourself, go for it and enjoy your
life.”
When she got her chance at a recording
deal, Woman Enough
was not a simple exercise in self
glorification. A chunk of the proceeds from that album and merchandise
sales was donated to Learning
For Life program, and the material
was chosen with their potential impact on the listener in mind.
“I love music. It
has the power to motivate, heal, inspire and some songs have the
ability to forever impact our lives.”....
Throughout the debut album, Bryant displayed her belief in music
as a life-changing force. The songs explored communication, self-definition,
compassion and the power of risk-taking. The Nashville music community
showed its belief. She gained assistance from ex-Bread vocalist
Jimmy Griffin
and former England Dan partner John
Ford Coley, and co-wrote with Academy
of Country Music award-winner Judy
Rodman. The musicians who contributed
to the project had an impressive list of credentials, having worked
with such country acts as Vince Gill
and Garth Brooks,
in addition to pop and rock performers such as Linda
Ronstadt and Pink
Floyd. Three of the album’s
cuts received airplay on Sirius Satellite Radio, and “When
You Get To Be You” launched
her into the Billboard country charts while the video appeared
on GAC and CMT.com. Bryant has also been featured in numerous
media, including a cover piece in Nashville Lifestyles,
as well as features in The Tennessean and The Las Vegas
Sun.
